Chapter Thirty-Seven: Destroying the False Way by Enlightenment
Liu Bei was not only unharmed when he entered Wu this time, but also embraced the beauty, and inevitably put on a banquet for a few days to comfort everyone. It was the New Year again, Jingzhou was full of joy, everyone was smiling, only Zhao Shu felt guilty and closed the door to thank the guests. Guan Ping moved his family to Xiangyang again, and Zhao Shu had nowhere to go, so he could only occasionally find Wei Yan to pass through the door and drink with Huang Zhong and the others.
After more than two months, Eastern Wu sent Lu Su to envoy. Liu Bei summoned Kong Ming, Zhao Shu and the two passed through the house, Zhao Shu had the merit of getting married again, and he and Kong Ming were already the two chief strategists in the army, slightly more than Sun Qian, Jian Yong and others. The four guests sat down, and Lu Su said: "The day before yesterday, the lord of my family went to the court to protect the emperor's uncle as the pastor of Jingzhou. However, the imperial court issued an order to make the governor of Zhou the governor of Nanjun. Su Jin was ordered by Wu Hou Jun to come specifically for Jingzhou. The emperor's uncle has been borrowed for a long time, and he has not been returned. Now that the two families are married, they should look at the family affection and deliver it early. ”
Kong Ming laughed when he heard this, and said: "Zi Jingcheng is a gentleman, but he doesn't know that this is Cao Cao's plan." Now Cao Cao is powerful, if my lord and Wu Hou join forces to fight, then the victory or defeat is unknown? Cao Cao knew that the land of Nanjun was in the hands of my lord, but he made the governor of Zhou the county guard. This plan to sow discord also wants to make our lord and Wu Hou disagree, so as to make things happen. Why is Zijing unknown? ”
Lu Su didn't know where to go, but this was not to discuss Cao Cao's plan, but he just wanted to return to Jingzhou, and nodded: "Kong Ming is reasonable. Before he could say anything, he was interrupted by Kong Ming: "If my lord returns Jingzhou today, there will be no place to stay." Why don't we wait for our lord to take Xichuan, and then return Jingzhou. He bowed deeply to Lu Su and said: "If you have troubles, please return to see Wu Hou, don't hesitate to say a word, and tell Wu Hou about this troublesome episode, and let it take a while." ”
Lu Su didn't want to be preempted by Kong Ming again, and asked for Jingzhou's words, but it was inconvenient to export again, so he had to say: "Wu Hou doesn't obey, what can I do?" Kong Ming laughed again: "Since Wu Hou married the emperor's uncle with his own sister, he didn't care?" I hope that my son will reply with kind words. Lu Su looked at Kong Ming for a while, and had no choice but to say goodbye and return to Soochow.
Zhao Shu watched Lu Su leave, and suddenly remembered a common saying in later generations, "It is the grandfather who owes the debt, and the grandson who owes the debt", poor Lu Su, how many grievances he suffered in order to ask Jingzhou for it.
A few days later, Lu Su came to Jingzhou again, claiming that Eastern Wu wanted to help Liu Bei take Xichuan, but the military horses passed by, but they wanted to ask for money and food. Hearing this letter, Zhao Shu didn't even feel good, Zhou Yu was going to come to find death again, this time he couldn't make any more suggestions, he had already lowered his head, pretending to ponder.
Although Zhao Shu didn't have an idea, Kong Ming still said to Liu Bei: "This Zhou Lang is scheming." The name is taken from Xichuan, but it is actually taken from Jingzhou. Waiting for the lord to go out of the city to work the army, he took it in one fell swoop, and took advantage of the situation to seize Jingzhou. This is a plan to 'destroy the false way'. ”
Liu Bei suddenly smiled and said: "Although Zhou Lang's plan is wonderful, it's a pity that the military advisor sees through it, how will he do it?" ”
Kong Ming was already in his chest, and replied: "The lord is relieved, Zhou Lang will lead the army to the city in the future, so that the ......" Zhao Shushi did not want to see Zhou Yu die, and suddenly interrupted Kong Ming and said: "The lord is now allied with Wu Hou, and it is really not appropriate to use swords lightly." ”
Kong Ming said: "Jingwei is also bad. It's not that the lord wants to use the sword, it's actually Zhou Lang's plot. Shall we sit idly by? Zhao Shu saw that Liu Bei also agreed with Kong Ming's words, and knew that there could be no more changes, but he didn't want to really listen to how they plotted against Zhou Yu, so he got up and said: "Shu suddenly feels unwell and wants to leave first." ”
Back in the house, Zhao Shu couldn't help but think of the beloved words: "Back then, Xiao Qiao got married for the first time, and he was heroic." Lupine scarf, talking and laughing, the canopy is gone. "Could it be that such a heroic figure died in front of him, and he was indifferent?
When he got up the next day, Huang Ming fetched water and came in, and Zhao Shu asked casually, "Where is my father-in-law now?" But he replied: "The old general led the army, the lord, and the army out of the city early in the morning." ”
"Not good." Zhao Shu exclaimed, it must have been an ambush to attack Zhou Yu, and hurriedly ordered people to prepare the horses. After cleaning it indiscriminately, Zhao Shu rode out of the city and came to the river. Walking more than ten miles away, I heard the sound of Zhentian's shouting and killing, and saw the flags and dust flying in the distance. Zhao Shu knew that Zhou Yu had been tricked, and saw Liu Bei and Kong Ming standing on the hill not far away to watch the battle, so he rode over.
After saluting Liu Bei, Zhao Shu turned to look down the mountain, there were thousands of troops and horses fighting, and the Wu army was surrounded in the middle, and the situation was gradually weakening. Looking from a distance, Zhou Zishuai surrounded a circle of sergeants, but he didn't see Zhou Yu's figure, so he must have fallen off his horse. Zhao Shu turned to Liu Bei again and bowed down, and said: "If the lord wants to become a hegemon, how can he not be a big deal because of a small stump for a while?" ”
Liu Bei glanced at him, seemed puzzled, and asked lightly: "What does Jingwei mean by this?" ”
Zhao Shu said eagerly: "Although the lord has Jingzhou, there is Cao Cao in the north and Sun Quan in the south. Zhou Yu is the general of Wuzhong, if he is captured now, how can Sun Quan be willing to rest? He raised an army to take revenge, and Cao Jun arrived, what can he do? If you don't release it, you will feel the kindness of the lord and will not dare to do it again. Jingzhou is stable, so that we can map Xichuan again and compete for the world. ”
Liu Bei nodded slightly, looked at Kong Ming again, and asked what he meant. Kong Ming saw that the defeat of the Wu army was decided, and Zhou Yu's life and death were unknown, and he didn't want to do anything for himself, and said: "In today's battle, the Wu army lost its courage and avenged the invasion with enough. Liu Bei saw that both of them had this intention, so he ordered Mingjin to withdraw his troops. Huang Zhong, Wei Yan and other generals restrained the sergeant and slowly retreated. The Wu army was weak and did not chase after it, but just stuck to the same place.
Kong Ming said again: "Liang Xiu wrote a book, so that someone can send it to Zhou Lang, so that the two sides will not have grudges." Zhao Shu wanted to see how Zhou Yu's life and death were, so he urgently asked for his life. In front of the two armies, Zhao Shu said loudly: "Zhao Shu of Jingzhou went up to worship the governor of Zhou, and he looked forward to it for a while." ”
When he was young, Lu Su came out and said, "The governor asks Mr. to speak in the army." Zhao Shu hurriedly dismounted and walked into the army with Lu Su. At this time, Zhou Yu was sitting on a stretcher, and when he saw him coming, he coughed and said: "Yu is injured and can't see the courtesy, I hope Mr. will forgive him." ”
Zhao Shu looked at Zhou Yu's pale face and his body was crumbling, pitiful for this generation of famous generals, his life would not last long. Nai Xingli presented Kong Ming's letter and said: "This is the letter of Zhuge Military Division and the Governor. ”
Zhou Yu hurriedly opened the letter and looked at it, and after looking at it, he pondered for a long time, and then sighed and asked, "What else is the matter with Mr.?" ”
Zhao Shu glanced at him and persuaded: "The foundation of Eastern Wu is solid, and many major events need to be planned by the governor, and I hope that the governor will protect the noble body and help Wu Hou achieve great things." Moreover, Cao Thief is powerful, and the governor of Wangdu takes the overall situation as the priority, and must not raise swords again. ”
Zhou Yu nodded and said dejectedly: "Thank you, sir, for your kindness." And go back to the emperor's uncle, Wu Hou also wants to ally against Cao, and the two families can strike the sword soldiers. ”
Zhao Shu said goodbye, walked a few steps and glanced at Zhou Yu, and said silently in his heart: This is the last glance.
